New submission from Eric Snow <ericsnowcurrently at gmail.com>:

When writing an importer, the finder (either MetaPathFinder or PathEntryFinder) must implement `find_spec()`.  A useful tool for that is the existing `spec_from_loader()`. [1]  The docs for `MetaPathFinder.find_spec()` and `PathEntryFinder.find_spec()` should mention it.
